Some occurrences notified at a date later than the beginning of
November 1950, when the early pages of this edition had to go to
press, could not be recorded in the body of the book ; a number of
these, of the most general interest, are listed in a supplement pre-
ceding the first page of the biographies, This includes, also, a list of
the recipients of titles, gazetted 1st January 1951, in cases where there
is not already an entry in the current edition. The obituary on pages
3447 includes deaths reported up to 1st January 1951.
A proof of each entry is posted to its subject every year for personal
revision, but this cannot be sent unless an address is given. It should
be pointed out that the numbers given of the children of a marriage
are, unless otherwise indicated, those of the sons and daughters now
living; also, that it is the practice to print the names of London clubs
unaccompanied by the word London.
It cannot be stated too emphatically that inclusion in Who's Who
has never at any time been a matter for payment or of obligation to
purchase the volume.

WHAT IS
VIVISECTION?
VIVISECTION means scientific experiments on
living animals. Many of these experiments cause
very great pain.
IT IS CLAIMED by pro-vivisectionists that
animal experimentation is advancing the science
of medicine. On the other hand, doctors of the
highest standing and qualifications have denied
this.
THE CASE against what is commonly known as
vivisection is founded in the main on a very simple
proposition : — That it is base and cowardly to
attempt to derive some advantage from inflicting
cruel suffering on dogs and other defenceless
animals.
THAT PROPOSITION takes into consideration
not only the suffering of the victimized creatures
but the disastrous hardening of the human heart
which must result from practising and tolerating
cruelty.
THE EVIDENCE that vivisection is often ex-
ceedingly cruel is overwhelming. Apart from
the fact that our law governing this practice
explicitly sanctions the infliction of " severe pain,"
there is the testimony of the experimenters them-
selves as published in their scientific journals.
Particulars of Cruel Experiments on
animals can be obtained from —

WHO'S WHO, 1951
Please HELP these children!
Since its foundation in 1827, several thousand orphans of Merchant Seamen have
been cared for, educated, and set up in life ; and there are now over 300 boys and
girls at the school, more than half of whom lost their fathers during the late war.
The assured income does not meet
the expenditure . New subscribers are
urgently needed to bridge the gap.
Please show your appreciation of
our Merchant Seamen by sending
donations or subscriptions to the

The glorious wines of
Sonth Africa
Quite recently — within less than a dozen years —
connoisseurs and admirers of good wine redis-
covered something that had long lain dormant;
the potentiality of the Union of South Africa for
fine Viticulture. The fine wines and brandies
specially selected and matured for the British
market by the Ko-operatieve Wijnbouwers
Vereniging and shipped by the South African
Wine Farmers Association (London) Ltd. have
a higher reputation and are more eagerly in
demand than ever before.
Owing to war's aftermath these specially selected
wines were temporarily in short supply, but South
African sherries, brandies, vermouths and certain
types of table wines of real merit are now readily
available to wine lovers.

Foreword by SIR GERALD WOLLASTON, K.C.B.. K.C.V.O.
Earl Marshal's Secretary,
formerly Garter Principal King of Arms
A new and highly readable book on a very
technical subject. From long study and re-
search it is reliable and authoritative and it is
comprehensive in its discursion of the use and
abuse of titles in the peerage, knightage, Privy
Council, justiciary and the churches. Written
in a style of the clarity and facility to be ex-
pected of the Managing Editor of the Sunday
Times., it may well become the standard work.

The work of saving children in need of care and protection, of
placing them in surroundings where their natural talents may
develop, and their will to succeed in life is encouraged .... the
work of Dr. Barnardo's Homes is of vital concern to the Nation.
More than 140,000 boys and girls have been welcomed into these
Homes in 85 years ; to-day, the family numbers 7,000 children,
from babies-in-arms to adolescents. The work still depends on
public support, and the need for Legacies as a source of income
is as great as ever.
Will you send a gift for the children's food now, or remember
our family in your Will ?
I Of-
will buy one child's
food for five days
Cheques etc. (crossed), payable " Dr. Barnardo's Homes ", should be sent

It may sound like a stiff drink and look pretty hope-
less to most of us, but it's just one of those knots that
seasoned sailors take in their stride. Sailors do have
their knotty problems though, and they need help to
unravel them. So when your clients are making their
wills, remember that all ranks of all sea services are
assisted by King George's Fund for Sailors. This
central body makes grants where the need is greatest
to over 120 marine societies.

THE
SOCIETY OF INCORPORATED
ACCOUNTANTS AND AUDITORS
Founded 1885
The membership of the Society is approximately 8,750.
Members are entitled to use the designation "Incor-
porated Accountant". Fellows use the initial letters
F.S.A.A. and Associates A.S.A.A.
Admission to membership is by examination only, subject
to satisfactory completion of articles of clerkship for five
years (University graduates three years). Six years'
approved professional service may be accepted in lieu
of five years' articles.
Articles may also be integrated with full-time study
at certain Universities. Under this scheme a specific
University degree and the Society's qualification can be
attained in the total period of five and three-quarter
years. Such graduates are exempted from the Society's
Intermediate examination.
There are organisations of Incorporated Accountants in
Scotland, Ireland and the Dominions, and District
Societies in twenty-two centres in England and Wales
and Northern Ireland.
